Biography
Damien joined the Light Microscopy Facility in 2017. Prior to joining Janelia, he managed the light microscopy facility of the Mediterranean Center for Molecular Medicine (Nice, France) for 5 years. This center is known for leading fundamental research in biology as well as translational research with clinicians. Damien was trained as a physical chemist, he received his Ph.D. from the department of Chemistry of the Ecole Normale Superieure (Paris, France). He then used his training in photophysics and photochemistry to develop his expertise in microscopy through research projects involving custom systems with a particular interest for techniques such as FRET, FLIM, SPT, FRAP, and FCS. Throughout his research projects and his support role in microscopy facilities, Damien has worked with a wide range of microscope modalities. He applied those in various fields of biology ranging from cell biology, cancer research, metabolic diseases, and neuroscience.
